St. Charles resident Richard Rusin, 28, was selling Christmas trees at Northland Tree Farms at the corner of Seventh and State streets in Geneva when he answered nine questions from the Kane County Chronicle's Brenda Schory.
Where did you grow up? Geneva.
Pets: A puggle named Toffy.
Favorite fictional character? Wolverine from X-Men.
First job? Walking a dog for a lady at my church.
As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to work in construction, and I do.

What is an interesting factoid about yourself? I don't really say "no" to a dare. I rode on the top of one of my friends mini-vans, hanging on, going 70-75 miles an hour late one night on Randall Road.
